In 1976, the Valiant-derived Plymouth Duster and Dodge Dart
Sport were the fastest four-passenger cars in America,
with a top speed of 121.8 mph (2.7 mph behind the Corvette). Australia’s Valiant Charger and Pacer set records and won car races in New Zealand. The Plymouth Feather
Duster achieved a 36 mpg rating.

The most impressive Valiants were made in Australia, where a Hemi-head six-cylinder
engine, fed by Weber carburetors, set a speed record which
(arguably) still holds. Chrysler Valiant
Chargers became New Zealand's most
successful racing car.
